Patriotism, Drought, and the Land: A Conversation on America's 250th
Reflecting on Independence Day and the nation's 250th anniversary, they discuss the meaning of patriotism, the sacrifices of military veterans, and the importance of civic participation through voting. Hank shares memories of the devastating 1977 drought in Harney County and compares those conditions to the ongoing drought challenges affecting much of the western United States today. Together, he and Trent examine water shortages, federal land and water regulations, wildfire concerns, and the impact of drought on ranchers and agricultural producers.
